Different Day, Mostly The Same Crap

by: Debra

Over a year has gone by since we changed the deck chairs on the Titanic, also known as the Demowienies taking "control" of Congress. As most people have noticed, nothing changed. Absolutely nothing. Bush is still running the country into the ground; his cronies are still increasing their portfolios at phenomenal rates; the poor are even poorer and now have even more competition for the bottom of the economic ladder; New Orleans is being remade into a city that the former residents can't afford; and even more corruption, lying and cover-ups have been revealed. See what you get when impeachment is off the the table? If we do have an election next year, they all need to be replaced with people who really will represent us, not rage and cave, or even worse, bluff and fold.

Anybody who thinks that the tapes were the only thing withheld from the 9/11 commission, is not dealing with a full deck. And people wonder why conspiracy theories abound. No matter what Bill Maher believes, I come from the school of if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it ain't a goose.

The little Christmas tree that could...bring a tear to my eye. That was a great story. How many Americans would have kept a tradition that long and under such difficult circumstances?

My family knows this one well. Dad died on the Fourth of July and mom had her stroke on Christmas Eve. Don't you just love the holidays?

I've been following this study since I was in school in the nineties. We have learned so much about Alzheimer's from one guy's need to do a thesis.
However many kids these nuns may have terrorized in their youth, what they have done for the rest of us is very much appreciated.

Bigger. Faster. Better. No, it's not the Bionic Woman or the Six Million Dollar man. It's the collection and collation of biometric data on people who haven't done anything wrong, they're just breathing and they might be a little brown. Will this information be put to good use? Somehow I doubt it. What I don't doubt is that we are at 665 and aren't aware that a really bad number comes next.

From deb's link:

The FBI will also retain, upon request by employers, the fingerprints of employees who have undergone criminal background checks so the employers can be notified if employees have brushes with the law.

Well now, lookee there who they seem to wanna protect. Corporatocracy is great for the nation...not so much for the citizens.

I gotta admit, Ron Paul is starting to sound not so crazy after all. Okay, yes he does, but some of the craziness will be tempered by Congress, anyway, and while he would like the corporations to have the leeway to paddle employees or decide to pay 1/2 wages 'til the boss gets back from Tahiti if they want to, from what he's spouting on his newsletters, he'd be against anything poking into personal lives.

If by some wild nightmare scenario, RP should get the nomination for the Republicans, it would not surprise me in the least to see the right shooting at him just as much as the left. Or rather, the ESTABLISHMENT, I should say. You know; The one's profiting so handsomely from military engagements...win or lose, they win as long as we destroy(and rebuild!).

trog69,

From "The Police"

Every breath you take, and every move you make
Every bond you break, every step you take
I'll be watching you

Every single day, and every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay
I'll be watching you

Oh, can't you see, you belong to me
How my poor heart aches with every step you take

Every move you make, every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake
I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

Every single day, and every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay
I'll be watching you

Every move you make, every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake
I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you
From the son of a CIA Agent. Just a little bit ironic, eh?

From the CIA, NSA, NHL, NBA, NFL, NBA, ASPCA, and Wally-World,

Have a Merry Christmas (wink wink!)

If you've got the fortitude to keep yer eyeballs glued to my gluteus...the least I can do is strut it for ya!

"If you think I'm sexy,
and you want my body,
c'mon FT and let me know!"


On second thought, just keep it to yourself. Please.

Oh man oh man...the dreaded 665.372! Get thee behind three, Satan!

Duhbya…

Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off the grin,
I know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord!

Oh trog69,
I thought that was our little secret! But actually, I was only looking at "half", not a complete one! Nyuck Nycuk!

Strut? Sorry. I'll keep waitin' for Sheena. (Much better glutes!)
by: Father Tyme (contact) - 23 Dec '07 - 18:56
Amen to that, Padre! Merry happy joyful elation and more, much much more yuletide cheer than one can stomach...my x-mas x-ray wishes to evabuddy!
